VersaLab 3 Tesla Cryogen-free VSM

Photo of VersaLab 3 Tesla Cryogen-free VSM VersaLab is specifically designed for magnetic characterization up to 3 tesla and over a wide temperature range (50 K-1000 K) without the need of liquid cryogens. VersaLab utilizes technology developed for Quantum Design’s popular Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS®).
  • Free time while instrument performs the automated measurements;
  • Free space in the lab because of its compact size and portability;
  • Freedom from cooling water and high power requirements;
  • Freedom from liquid cryogens;
  • A single hardware configuration for a wide range of temperatures, fields, and magnetic moments;
